    I've been playing around with adding my Nomad model to my USS Enterprise shuttle bay, but having trouble getting the Nomad to show up in my final render. I can see the Nomad in my 3d viewport, like you can see in my screenshot below:

    I'm showing my Blender project here, so you can see my settings regarding toggling visibility. Also, changing from Eevee to Cycles makes no difference. Also, I've tried hitting alt-H to toggle off any hides.

    Any suggestions?

    My friend, what are these collections you toggled off in render mode?

    Ah, I started modeling this project in Blender 2.79, and those are things that I had made invisible by putting them in separate layers, and toggled them off to hide them. When I started to learn Blender 2.8, I just left them invisible, because I still don’t want to see them. They’re things like boolean objects, preboolean geometry, and the like.

    Try checking under object properties, then Visibility. Make sure Show in Viewport and Show in Renders are both selected. If that doesn't work, go open up the Nomad collection and make sure everything in it is visible to the camera.

    Good luck!

    With Nomad selected, go to 'Object Properties'->'Visibility' and make sure that both 'Show in Render' and 'Camera' are ticked.

    Thanks, Psion and Rekkert! I looked at both those boxes and both are selected.

    I'm going to try to reimport my Nomad from its original Blend file, and see if that helps.
